Well, I am back in Iraq again. It has been 3 days short of 3 months. The trip over wasn't to bad, it was the same just about the same as last time...just with different people and a few of the same. I have run into a few people that I knew from my ATC school. It was nice to catch up and see how everybody has been over the past few years.
As far as for where I am stationed.... It is a whole lot different than Balad! I am liking it here though, it is small and quiet for the most part. I am enjoying working in the tower. I am getting some good experience talking to pilots and controlling aircraft.
Luckily I also got to see Randy in the beginning of December so that was wonderful. (I will attach a picture later.) I flew up there and got to see him for 2 1/2 days. We didn't do much but watch movies and just spend time together. I got to spend some time with him at work and he got rated in his facility while I was there. I am so proud of him! I am still holding to the belief that I am smarter than him but he still doesn't believe me. Oh well, I guess I have the rest of my life to convince him.
That is about it from here for now. I will update the blog soon with pictures. I hope that everybody is doing well and happy and healthy this Holiday Season! I want to say thank you to everybody who has been sending me boxes, cards, letters, and emails. It is so helpful to have all of that stuff while I am out here and everybody who I give the extra to is very grateful. I miss all of you and can't wait to see you when I get home.
